Wouldn't it make more sense to save this for summer? If there are only four players, a single inactive player could really mess up a game—and players are likely to be inactive for entire games, if a day is 24 hours and a cycle is 1-3 days.

Edit: Rereading this post, it seems pretty rude. Sorry if it was.

@Starver, just in, dude.
Giving the option.  Gave some facts.  Used far less words than usual.  (Was careful about that!)

In unless refused, then... (And won't be upset, if so.)

And that's four players.
Now we wait.

Some good points were made... Days will now last 48 hours. The game will begin once I can get to my notes.

Round 1 - Night 0

 Some cowardly townsfolk huddle in their homes. Are there any that are brave enough to face the night? No one knows but they themselves. Meanwhile, evil lurks outside the window without fear - for what is there for it to fear if it itself is feared? Nothing.

        At least during the night...

Round 1 - Day 1

    ...During the day, he has something to fear. The townspeople - courage restored by the risen sun - assemble in the town square. They know that one among them is not a loyal townsperson like them - and they will weed him out and hang him for his crimes. He fidgets, quietly cursing them. He hates the day as much as they hate the night. "But when its all over," he tells himself, "I'll have nothing to fear."

Okay, who got night actioned?  The start being at night has to mean that SOMEONE had a chance to act.

Re: Mafia Marathon (Semi-bastard) Day 1. Tomasque, edit the title please.

I had a chance to act. My action succeeded.
To my knowledge, I was not acted upon.

So riddle me this: nobody died during the night. So there's an unknown. Why didn't the evil person kill? Possibilities:
1. Role stuff. One of the town, or maybe a neutral role, is a protector/blocker/bulletproof/? that prevented/neutralized the kill.
2. The evil person has a non-standard kill action, or cannot kill.
3. This is a semi-bastard mafia. Bastard stuff happened, kill didn't happen.
4. Evil person was inactive/forgot to act.
5. Something I haven't thought of.

hector13: which do you think it is?
TheBiggerFish: do you like my analysis? Do you agree with my analysis?

@FoU:Checks out with what I know.

I had a chance to act, but did not do anything with it.

My questions' answers: No; No; Maybe. - Whether you consider them useful/definitive or not.
Tempted to try answer the others, but I shouldn't pre-empt the proper replies.  Opinions later, perhaps.

hector13: which do you think it is?

This focus on theorycrafting over the night action is bothersome, man. The answer will only come out at the end of the game, so we should be scumhunting instead, FoU.

TBF: out of curiousity, why didn't you act? The fact that there was no kill and you admit to being able to do something, yet didn't do it is interesting.

Starver: Opinions now, we have no time! :o

@hector:Because I have an auto that would have gone away for uncertain-to-no benefit.

By the way, what's you guys' flavor like?

How will that knowledge help us find the scum?

I want to cross-check your flavor against my flavor/role.

I think I know what type of scum we're up against, but it's semi-bastard, so I might be getting a lot of technically true but useless information.
